Farming
Organic agriculture is a production system that sustains the health of soils, ecosystems and people. This is an initiative undertaken by Sempulam Sustainable Solutions and Sprouts Montessori, to make Indian Agriculture completely Organic! A strong education component on sustainable nutrition is given to our 6th to 8th grade children, helping them grow in both body and mind.
The curriculum, links school gardens and farms with practical learning about nature.The syllabus also provides insight into other arenas like food production, marketing, business skills, food processing and preparation and making healthy food choices.
Parents’ feedback reflects, how there is a positive change in the mindset of these young people, post the physical sessions at the farm. Not only do their eating habits undergo a drastic transformation, but also there is a social consciousness and awareness of the value of every grain, which is appreciated and revered.
